Shades disc for [redacted] - Bridge to Bridge

This disc consists of music from two west coast cities that is close to my heart. On two different west coasts. One is Gothenburg in Sweden, where I am from, the second being San Francisco in the US, where I live. They are far apart, but I wanted to combine them into a musical journey. There are a lot of good music from both places, so I had to collect them and put them on one disc. There are some different genres: Metal, Synthwave, Pop, Rock, Electronica, etc. I will do one GBG artist and then an SFO artist, so it's every other song.

  1. Heartbeats - José González
    • This song is originally done by The Knife (also a Gothenburg artist), but the music video is recorded in SF, so it combines the cities nicely and is the slow slart of this collection.
  2. Kites - Geographer
    • A
  3. Pass This On - The Knife
    • Fun fact, this band, consisting of the siblings Dreijer, were my neighbors when I grew up.
  4. In Blur - Deafheaven
    • Deafheaven is considered being a blackgaze band (black metal and shoegazing mix), but this song is from their latest album and it's much softer than their usual stuff. The band started in SF, but they are now living in LA.
  5. Cotton Skies - Westkust
    • This is a pretty new shoegazing band from Gbg, they have released two full length albums.
  6. Ease - Whirr
    • These guys also play shoegaze. The lead guitarist Nick Bassett played in the original line up of Deafheaven.
  7. Sister Surround - The Soundtrack Of Our Lives
    • The lead singer Ebbot always plays in a kaftan and he's a well known singer in the Swedish music scene.
